💅 xe_guc_log_snapshot_free(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the xe_guc_log_snapshot_free(9) page — yes that's the header, and it lives in the Kernel API Manual, which is giving very "reference section of the library but make it glam" ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

xe_guc_log_snapshot_free — literally the function that frees a GuC log snapshot you captured earlier. cleanup era, we love to see it 🧹💖

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void xe_guc_log_snapshot_free (struct xe_guc_log_snapshot *snapshot );

like, that's the whole signature, no cap. void in, void out, very low-drama 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• snapshot — the GuC log snapshot structure in question 🫶 this is the thing you're handing over so it can get freed.

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

so the return description here is a little unhinged but we're keeping it exactly as written, bestie, because facts are facts:

pointer to a newly allocated snapshot object or null if out of memory. Caller is responsible for calling xe_guc_log_snapshot_free when done with the snapshot.

yup — that's the text, and the key takeaway is the last bit: you, the caller, are the one responsible for calling xe_guc_log_snapshot_free when you're done with the snapshot. no ghosting your allocations, okay? 😭🙈
